REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE.
The Dealers Turn Gut to the Meeting
This Time.

Nearly every firm dealing in Minneapolis
dirt was represented at the meeting to or
ganiZe a real estate exchange, held in the
rotunda of the Boston block yesterday.
William Cheney presided and r. II. Crafts
acted as secretary. A good deal of opposi-
ton was developed to the proposed ex-
change at the outset, many seeming to
think that number of dealers had got to-
gether, and after appointing a committee to
pass upon membership, had called this
meeting to ratity their action. L. S. Car
ser and others, who had been identified
with the movement from the start, explained
that abundant notice had been given Of the
two previous meetings and the attendance
of ali real estate dealers had been urgently
invited. 1t was proposed next by
the opposition that the action of the previ-
Gus meetings should be reconsidered and
that practically a new exchange should be
organized. his was strongly opposed by
the original members who wanted the COM
mittee on membership retained. After
more discussion tending to explain matters
and placate the opposition, ballot was
taken which decided by vote of 103 to 81
that the committee should stand as it was,
and report upon applications for member
ship at a meeting to be held Jan. 20. Those
admitted to membership at that time will
go on and complete the organization.

In the attempt to swim the Niagara whirI-
pool rapids is no more dangerous than to
trifle with disease which each day secures
stronger hold and hastens the end of life,
This is specially true of rheumatism, neu-
ralia, sciatica and nervous headache, which
though perhaps slight at first, are extremely
dangerous, and steadily secure q firmer grip
until at last the agony is uncomfortable and
sudden death brings relief.
These diseases can be cured by the use of
Athlophoros which, in connection with
AthlophOros Pills, never fails when prop
erly used. Read the following from those
who have tested it:
John S. Kennedy, Spearville, KAN, says:
NEARLY two years ago four bottles of
Athlophoros cured me of rheumatism, and
[ have had no return of the old complaint
since''
Mrs. A. Newton, wife of ex-Mayor New
ton, Des Moines, Ia. says: Il had been a
great sufferer for years, and had resorted
to many remedies. but nothing would do
what Athlophoros did for me. Athlo-
phoroS took the stiffness out OF the Joints of
my fingers. which l had been troubled with
so long"
Murray j. Cochran. Denison, Ia, says:
''l& is now two years since / used Athlo-
phoros, and [ have had no rheumatism
since. At the time used this medicine 1
was crippled so that L had to use crutches.
My knees were swollen so that | had to
cut my pants in order to wear them; my
arms were stiff at the elbows: part of the
time l could not feed myself. While in this
condition | was advised to take Athlo-
phoros, which l did. After using a few
bottles [ was completely cured"
Every druggist should keep Athlophoros
and Athlophoros Pills. but where they can
not be bought of the druggist the Athlopho-
rOs company, 1l2 Wall street. New York.
will send either carriage paid OH receipt
of regular price. which is 81 per bottle for
AthlophOros and so cents for Pills.
For liver and kidney diseases. dyspepsia.

Their First Reunion in the North
west.
The Amherst alumni residing in the
Northwest held their first annual reunion
and banquet at the West hotel last evening.
Eighty-fve invitations had been issued to
graduates residing in Wisconsin, Minnesota
and Dakota. and in response to these
twenty-three of Amherst'S sons gathered,
told tales of college life, did ample justice
to an elegant menu and, in an informal way,
toasted the alma mater and her beneficiarieS.
Letters were read from President Seeley
and ProfS. Hitchcock and w. S. Tyler, of
Amherst. Many notes Of regret were re-
ceiyed from those who could not attend.
E. w. Peet, of st. Paul, acted as toast
master, and though there was no formal
list of responses. the impromptu speeches,
made by DrS. Neill and Fairbanks, Messrs
Stuart. Metcalf and others, were happy
efforts, and reflected credit alike Oh the
speakers and their college.
A permanent organization was effected,
and annual reunions will be held regularly
hereafter. Those present were:

for the plaintiff.
Before Judge Young yesterday afternoon
was commenced the appeal case of Mrs
Eliza Hopkins against the Minneapolis, Lyn-
dale Minnetouka Railway company. Whe N
her land was condemned the commissioners
awarded her $500, but this she does not
think enough.
The board of county commissioners has

day.
Before Ju 1ge Young yesterday morning
the case of Peter B. Anderson against the L.
L. Sawle Elevator company, to recover dam
ages for I'M uries received to enc Of his hands
while engaged in switching cars at the eleva-
tor, was dismissed as no evidence was intro
duced to show that the defendant had been
criminally negligent.
Before Judge Lochren last Saturday was
heard the divorce case of Annie L. Wediu
against Andrew Wedin. in which the COM
plainant proved that her husband was incap-
able of performing his marital duties, and

time he had refused TO contribute to her sup
port. Yesterday an order was filed granting
the divorce.
In Judge Rea's court yesterday another
large audience gathered to hear the trial of
the case of George Hopkins against R. W.
Barto ct al. to recover $4,000, the value of
land alleged to have been obtained from him
by fraud. The evidence introduc ed showed
that Hopkins is not a particularly shrewd
business man. The defendants claim that be-
fore he exchanged his property for the 400
shares of mining stock at SO per share they
told him to fully investigate the concern, and
if he did not find it all right to report it to
them.

Grafton of SUNDAY school text books and
methods" the prevailing opinion of the
ministers seemed to be that more of the
doctrines of the church should be taught,
and that there should be less reliance on
leaflets and aids, and more on capable
teachers. At noon luncheon was served to
the delegates by the ladies of the parish at
the rectory. The topics of the afternoon were:

Church More Attractive to the Laity?"

of st. Paul; Parish Guilds and st. An

hood of st. Andrew, DR.. Welles disclosed
some. solid common sense regarding the
best methods of keeping young men in the
church. He advocated the establishment of
club houses. with parlors, billiard and card
rooms. and cited the success of such an ex-

with the Prussian legation were through its

Shocking Brutality.

PEKIN, ILL.,. Jan. 1S.-Gottlieb Soneti, of
fremont, came to Pekin to-day and placed
himself in keeping of the sheriff of the
county. Soneti said his neighbors were
preparing to lynch him and his wife. They
are accused of treating their ten-year-
boy in a most heartless and cruel manner,
such as burning him upon the stove. tying
him to the floor and leaving him in that
position till his feet were frozen. and at
times whipping him nearly to death for
some trivial offense. A complaint was
made against the father, and he was taken
to Jail to wait the action of the grand jury.
The mother is said to be even more cruel in
her treatment of the boy than is the father.
The boy is so badly burned where his
parents held him over a red-hot stove that
the flesh drops Off when the bandages are
removed. Physicians say his injuries are
probably fatal.

ARRANGEO FOR NAvlGATiON.
Engineer Capelien Says the New
Bridges Will Not Interfere.

Engineer Capelien Says the New
Bridges Will NotInterfere.
While nothing has recently been said of
the opening of navigation between Mime
apolis and st. Paul, the subject has been
close to the minds of many Minneapolitans
all the while. The report of Maj. Allen is
with the secretary of war, and there is con-
siderable inward chatting because of his
delay in making a supplemental report. In
the meantime there has been considerable
anxiety as to the location of the piers of
the new bridges, though no one seems to
have thought of inquiring as to their effect
ON navigation. The Washington avenue
and Northern Pacific bridges have been
erected and the Franklin avenue planned,
and yesterday GLOBE reporter called on
Engineer f. Cappellen, who has charge of
the bridge work in the city engineering de-
partment, and obtained the desired informa-
ton.
The Northern Pacific bridge is upper
most, and it is doubtful whether in any
event navigation would be extended that
far, though Mr.. Cappelen says it readily
may. The central pier of the bridge is in
the middle Of the river, though not of the
channel, and stands ESQ feet from the west
shore. Between it and the next pier on the
east is $50 feet, which is considered sutfi
GENTLY wide for the passage of a steamer.
The Washington avenue bridge has two
river piers, 200 feet apart. and the Franklin
avenue bridge will have the same arrange
ment. The depth of the river is nearly
uniform. and MI. Cappelen thinks the bot
tom could be dredged for distance Of $50
feet without disturbing either pier. I'VE
had due regard for possible navigation in
planning the bridges" he said.
In regard to the alleged unsafe condition
of the Tenth avenue bridge. the engineer
says he has made several examinations of
the structure and while he thinks it was
poorly made, it is now equal to the ordinary
strain put upon it. Nothing more is eX-
nected of II

STILL UNSATISFACTORY.
The Pooling Arrangement Fails to
Suit..The Flour Outpuf

The weekly review of the -four market
by the Northwestern Miller will say:
The closing half of last week was signal
lied by very low water, and while the mills
kept the output above 100000 barrels for the
week, steam had to be relied on largely in at
tanning that result. The flour product for
the week ending Jan. Is was 11S,20O barrels
averaging 1856 barrels daily for seven
days-against 116,570 barrels the preceding
week, and 1855 barrels for the correspond
ing time in 1856. This week the mills are
working on pool restricting those depending
on water to half time. The ARRANGEMENT,
however, is unsatisfactory and will probably
be discontinued at the end of the week
There were twelve mills in operation to-day
and they were turning out 16, 500 barrels per
twenty-four hours. OF these, four were
either driven wholly or partly by steam, two
engines having been shut down. Another
will shut Off its steam tomorrow. The water
power is very poor, even with one-half of the
water mills idle and no one not employing
steam is able TO run much above two-thirds
capacity. Two or three leading firms are
storing flour. the stock in the city amounting
to $4,000 barrels or over. The flour market
is dull and quiet, though prices are held up
pretty we'll.
